Jo's POV:

Why is he helping me?  I embarrassed myself when I first met him, and now he's carrying me bridal style into the house to get ice.

"Calum, right?" I ask trying to clear up the silence.

"Yeah!  And you're Jo, is that short for something?"

"Yeah Joanna... but I don't like it.  It's too girly." I can feel his chest vibrating as he laughs.

"Ok Jo, ok."  We get to the door and realize that he can't open it because he's holding me.  "Hold on,  I got this." He smirks. 

"No, I'm the one with the free hands let me." I say releasing the grip of one of my hands from his neck and pushing the door open. 

We walk in and Calum closes the door with his foot. 

"OK CALUM! HELLO THERE!!!"  Harry says with a smirk as we walk into the kitchen.

"Yeah, yeah, don't get used to it.  I'm not some damsel in distress that needs some pop stars help.  You can let me down now." I say to Calum.

I hop over to the freezer and take out an ice pack.  I hop over to the counter and jump up so I can sit and  put the ice on my already swollen knee.

"So, what was that thing called that you did?" The blue haired kid asked me.

"Three things blue, 1.) Your hair is amazing!  The color is just... UGH! Utterly awesome! 2.) I don't even know your name... so I think that I should know that. And 3.) A double back tuck."

"I think I could call you Blue too, BLUE!  And I'm Micheal." He says properly introducing himself.

"Wait.... Micheal Clifford?" I ask with confusion written all over my face.

"That's me!!"

"Michael!  It's me!  We met at an All Time Low concert!" I say hopping down from the counter.

"Holy shit!  Wait!  Didn't you have brown hair back then?" 

"Yeah, it was a dare to dye it!"

"I can't believe it's you! "

"Dude!  I told you that we would meet again!" 

"Small world..."

"Indeed." I respond to him with a smile.

"Ok.  Freeze. Reverse. Back up. Stop. Explain!" Louis says to me.

"When I was in Aussie last year for a school trip, I snuck out and saw an All Time Low concert and we met there!" I explain the situation.

"Wait...so this is Jo, Jo?"  a blonde headed boy asked.

"Ok, I know that you already told me your names but can I know your names... again?" I ask.

"Oh yeah, this is Luke," he points to the blonde kid "this is Ashton," he points to a boy grinning and waving at me "and Calum.... but I'm pretty sure you guys already met." 

"Yep we met..." I turn around to hop back up on the counter to put ice on my knee.  

"Back to what Luke said earlier... you talked about me Michael?" 

Ashton gasped and said, "Oh my gosh yes!  Jo knew all of the lyrics!  Jo had a really nice voice!  Jo and Calum would look good together!" My eyes go wide at the last comment.

"Excuse me... what?"  I chuckle nervously and my eyes flicker to Calum's and he has a slight blush to his cheeks. 

"Haha.. Yeah...Wait, you sunk out to go to the concert?  I never knew that...  bad ass Jo, bad ass!" 

I flip the hair that has fallen out of my bun over my shoulder.

"Will you be ok?  Like with your knee and all?" Luke asks

"PSH! Will I be ok?  I'll be out there in no time!  About... 30 minutes or so!" I say while looking at my knee.

"But... you just couldn't walk... Jo you're hurt!" Louis says.

"I'm a gymnast and a cheerleader... I hurt myself on a daily basis..." I say adding a chuckle at the end.

"That's why you can do all of those flips!" Harry says snapping his fingers in realization.

I chuckle, "What? Did you guys just think that I had no life what so ever so I devoted my time to teaching myself how to do flips? Well I have no life... but I do... it's all with gymnastics and cheer leading."

"Don't you go to school?" Liam asks.

"Yeah, I do. But an school made for athletics! A period is dedicated to a sport, and for me I switch every other day from gymnastics to cheer leading." 

"So you're flexible, yeah?" Niall says while wiggling his eyebrows.

I hop off of the counter, put my ice pack back, and jump up and down twice to see if my knee was still really painful, and finally say,

"I'm not going to answer that." then I turn to leave to go outside and I hear loud laughing and Louis scolding Niall.
